Looks Unfamiliar Spooky - Joanne Sheppard - Everyone Knows That's How Hands Work

1h 26m | Oct 31, 2023

Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to.

Joining Tim this time for a suitably spooky chat is book reviewer Joanne Sheppard, who's braving the walk home from Brownies and all the witches she can't leave the house without tripping over to tell the world about Dramarama: The Exorcism Of Amy, Children's BBC Ghost Story slot Spine Chillers, Blue Peter's Witch Puppet Make, Monsters Of The Movies by Denis Gifford, Nothing To Be Afraid Of by Jan Mark, Paperhouse, Dekker Toys' Movie/TV Horror Make-Up Kit and Remus Playkits Identispook, plus there's an extra bit of chat with Tim about that time that Josie And The Pussycats were possessed by a vengance demon. Along the way we'll be leafing through M.R. James' Whistle And I'll Be Some Stairs, debating the plural of 'A Ghost Story For Christmas', witnessing a rare sighting of the Blue Peter Haunted Galleon, remembering that time Magnus Magnusson picked a fight with TV 'Clown' and calling the selection process for 'King Of The Gorillas' into question.
